CHARLES R.

HIS MAjESTY looking with griefe of Heart upon the sad sufferings of His People in His three Kingdoms for some years past , and being afflicted with their Distresses and unquiet Condition , through the Distractions about Religion , the keeping of Forces on foot in the Fields and Garrisons , the not satisfying the Publique Debts , and the feares of the further Effusion of Bloud by the Continuance of an Unnaturall Warre in any of these Kingdomes , or by Renting or Dividing these Kingdomes so happily united ; And having sent a Gracious Message unto both Houses of Parliament , and the Commissioners of the Parliament of Scotland , expressing the necessary Causes of His comming from Oxford unto the Scottish Army , ( without any intention to make a Division , where He is in Freedome , and Right Capacity to settle a true Peace ) and containing such Offers as He conceived would have been accepted , with a generall Clause of complying with their Desires ; And being impatient of delayes , and not acquainted with the particulars which may give Contentment to them , His MAjESTY doth earnestly desire , That the Propositions of Peace so often promised , and so much expected , may be speedily sent unto Him , That upon Consideration of them , He may apply Himselfe to give such satisfaction , as may be the Foundation of a firme Peace . And for the better and more speedy attaining thereto , His MAjESTY doth further propound , That He may come to London with Safety , Freedom , and Honour , where He Resolves to Comply with His Houses of Parliament in every thing which may be most for the good of His Subjects , and perfect what remaines for setling both Kingdomes and People in a happy Condition ; Being likewise most confident , That they , according to their reiterated Declarations , and Solemne Protestations , will be zealous in the maintenance of His Honour , and Just and Lawfull Rights . And His MAjESTY desires the Houses of Parliament , To disburthen the Kingdome of all Forces and Garrisons in their power , except such as , before these unhappy Times , have been maintain'd for the necessary defence and safety of this Kingdome ; So He is willing forthwith to Disband all His Forces and Garrisons within the same , as the inclosed Order herewith sent will evidence . And if upon these Offers His MAjESTY shall have such satisfaction as He may be confident a firme Peace shall ensue thereon , His MAjESTY will then give Order for His Sonne the PRINCE his present Returne .
